MY EVER CHANGING MOODS..OR KERRY ON UP THE KHYBER!

Got to hand it to John Kerry - he can always be relied upon to introduce amusement into otherwise serious political debate. Of course. John doesn't mean to - it just sorta happens when he speaks! This hilarious item from the Washington Post has Jean Francois indicating that as President he would play down the promotion of democracy as a leading goal in dealing with Pakistan, Saudi Arabia, Egypt, China and Russia, instead focusing on other objectives that he said are more central to the United States' security. Like botox immunity certificates maybe?Poor John - even his pals in the media struggle to present his nonsense as nuance

I particularly like the way that the Post suggests that good old John-boy's foreign policy may be "less idealistic" than Bill Clintons!!!! Pause for jaw dropping. The words "idealistic" and "Clinton" rarely are spotted in the same sentence but the wonder of the liberal press is that all things - short of logic - are possible.
